Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: From the author of We Are the Ants comes “another winner” (Booklist, starred review) about a boy who believes the universe is slowly shrinking as the things he remembers are being erased from others’ memories. Tommy and Ozzie have been best friends since the second grade, and boyfriends since eighth. They spent countless days dreaming of escaping their small town—and then Tommy vanished. More accurately, he ceased to exist, erased from the minds and memories of everyone who knew him. Everyone except Ozzie. Ozzie doesn’t know how to navigate life without Tommy, and soon he suspects that something else is going on: that the universe is shrinking. When Ozzie is paired up with the reclusive and secretive Calvin for a physics project, it’s hard for him to deny the feelings developing between them, even if he still loves Tommy. But Ozzie knows there isn’t much time left to find Tommy—that once the door closes, it can’t be opened again. And he’s determined to keep it open as long as possible.
Download or read book Who Do We Think We Are written by Rodin JS Kumar and published by AABA Creative (M) Sdn. Bhd.. This book was released on 2024-05-17 with total page 308 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book is about humanity. It questions the essence of who we are as an individual, as part of a shared community and as a species from various perspectives. We are seekers….We want to know the answers to the essence and intricate mechanisms of everything that concerns us and everything around us. What is it all about? How and why do things happen? We want to know the cause or causes. Is there an ultimate cause for who I am and who do we think we are? Frequently, we find ourselves contemplating: What course of action should we pursue? To live or merely to survive. As we strive to gain knowledge, it is important to recognise the essential role of effort in navigating the complex fabric of life. I believe that every individual, at various junctures, assumes the role of a philosopher, thereby engaging actively in the pursuit of wisdom and knowledge. Therefore, seeking answers to these fundamental questions is not solely reserved for intellectuals, theologians and esotericists, but rather it is a matter that should engage the attention of anyone possessing a modicum of rationality. The subject matter encapsulated within the pages of this book has been expounded upon by a multitude of erudite authors and profound thinkers, who have traversed the realms of knowledge and contemplation. Drawing upon my perception, I have attempted to reconnect the scattered dots, unveiling my discernment of the world and the essence of humanity. The resultant canvas, adorned with enigmatic queries, beckons us to embark upon a journey of introspection and enlightenment, ultimately leading each one of us to an understanding of who do we think we are. This is Volume I, and it covers the first section of mysteries. Volume II covers miracles and mythology and concludes with my own thoughts.
Download or read book Signs written by Laura Lynne Jackson and published by Dial Press. This book was released on 2019 with total page 321 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "Laura Lynne Jackson is a psychic medium and the author of the New York Times bestseller The Light Between Us. She possesses an incredible gift--the ability to communicate with loved ones who have passed, convey messages of love and healing, and impart a greater understanding of our interconnectedness. Though her abilities are exceptional, they are not unique, and that is the message at the core of this book. Understanding "the secret language of the universe" is a gift available to all. As we learn to ask for and recognize signs from the other side, we will start to find meaning where before there was only confusion, we will see light in the darkness. We may decide to change paths, push toward love, pursue joy, and engage with life in a whole new way. In Signs, Jackson is able to bring the mystical into the everyday. She relates stories of people who have experienced these uncanny revelations and instances of unexplained synchronicity, as well as those drawn from her own experience. There's the producer whose lost child appears to her as a deer that approaches her unhesitatingly at a highway rest stop; the name tag of an ER nurse that lets a terrified wife know that her husband will be okay; the Elvis Presley song that arrives at the exact time of her own father's passing; and many others. This is a book that is both inspiring and practical, deeply comforting and wonderfully motivational in asking us to see beyond ourselves to a more magnificent universal design"--
Download or read book Finishing the Mysteries of Gods and Symbols written by Seven Star Hand and published by Seven Star Hand. This book was released on 2010-09-17 with total page 271 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Here is comprehensive proof that the symbolism of many ancient texts, canons, and concepts is an advanced and extremely ancient spiritual and philosophical technology that predates all extant religions and mystery schools. Consequently, here is proof, beyond disproof, that all three so-called “Faiths of Abraham” are purposeful deceptions. Accordingly, related esoterica, mystery schools, and the New Age are rife with error caused by undue reliance upon the assertions of these religions and their leaders. Throughout this book, I present verifiable proof that ancient sages and prophets opposed religion and wisely never trusted religious leaders. As comprehensive validation of this, they redundantly encoded stunning proof of why throughout pivotal symbolic narratives and related concepts. The ancient sages and prophets hid vital secrets from religious leaders throughout the previous several millennia. When these decoded details are compared to the history, words, and deeds of these religions and their leaders, they finally prove the truth about many long-hidden things. These religions have always purposely imposed ignorance based on the deceptive recasting of earlier symbolic concepts and narratives; that also expertly encoded the keys to ancient wisdom as redundant proofs of the truth. Arrogant religious leaders, while hypocritically lecturing others about morality, have long overlooked that the ancient sages and prophets were painfully aware of their then-current and future misdeeds and deceptions, and patiently and expertly prepared for them !!!
